P2 WordPress Theme Updates Functionality

December 29, 2009 in post

After updating to the newest version of the P2 WordPress Theme here at Updates.bz I am very happy to see they’ve now included a Blog post option, along with “Quote” and “Link” buttons to let users format posts differently.

This should slightly increase the SEO of the theme, however, there are still many problems with Search Engines properly reading updates in an efficient way. Many times the Recent tags are indexed as descriptions, and other wierd items. The placement of the Tags and Time/Date of the post are in a bad area as well. I’m going to work to move those items to the bottom of the posts as soon as I can.

With all these cool features coming into P2, why do I still have to write links in this blog post using manual HTML ? Lots more features, like a kitchen sink, need to be put onto the drawing board.

Best WordPress Contact Form Plugin

December 29, 2009 in post

WordPress Plugin Contact Form 7 still provides all the functionality basic users need right out of the box. These guys have really done an excellent job of keeping their plugin updates throughout the evolution of WordPress. I’ve recommended them in the past and feel like their reputation is only improving as more and more people use the plugin.

A few nice feature are multiple email recipients, managing and inserting unique contact forms using shortcodes plus it comes with a widgetized mini contact form!.

WordPress FAQ plugin – I’m back on the hunt for a good plugin to manage a FAQ area. I’d really just like to find a plugin that listed an index of the questions as clickable links to the answers, with some sort of nice permalink structure. Let me know if you have found one!

Google eyes ICQ for possible $250 mil price tag after AOL recently hired bankers to sell off the unit.

Strangely around 1/3 of ICQ’s nearly 30 million monthly users are located in Russia, an area Google has been trying to get a foothold in for over 2 years.
